Is Warframe Worth Playing in 2024?

Thanks for clicking on this Warframe video!

In today's video we answer the question, Is Warframe worth playing in 2024?

[unfunny]

even tho I've been playing this game regularly for over 10 yrs, i love watching vids like this

I returned after 6yrs as MR26 and was unable to progress much until i completed "The New War". To do that I had to build a voidrig, which meant fishing and mining. Once completed, was used once and now gathers dust in the inventory, just like my new railjack and K-drive.

I mainly enjoy warframe for the farms and the mainline/story updates. Just the idea of spending hours on end getting materials to make some cool weapons and warframes, or fishing and mining to get a bunch of standing so i can rank up, and also knowing all of the lore of this game makes me feel like an absolute genius.

Breaking up the game loop occasionally is something game developers do in almost every game to keep it fresh. I think fishing mining or hunting items every now and then helps prevent the game from getting stale.

My friend recently came back to Warframe, and he's enjoying it a lot! I do agree we have a lot of new content to chase for :)) Incarnon weapons are just amazing too.

If I remember correctly the last time I took a break from Warframe was when I realized I was spending more time in the game then in real life. Addicting game and mind you back then I wasn't doing it for content. The craziest day was when i sat 17 hours straight. The next day I uninstalled and told the clan I'm chilling out with other games for a bit. I'm back now, but at least there is a reason to play for so long and fortunately other reasons to get off. Aka my girlfriend. Is it worth it? Yes. Can it get stale? 100%. Should you take a break when that happens? Yup. I see that content for this game is incredibly try hard and rightly so. The fun factor: enjoying the small things get ripped away the longer you go on. Vets become jaded and decisions by DE are questionable... but hopefully we see a change in attitude for people to learn to game for fun. If that fun is taken away TAKE A BREAK you do not owe a company nor a game your time if you're not enjoying it! Warframe's always here and for me has been for 10 years. You can always return if you feel its worth it. New players you got a long way to go before you feel that fatigue so just enjoy the experience. Or watch people play and decide if its worth it.

I left Warframe when Duviri dropped because it felt like they were adding another "content island", when they should working on polishing and connecting the different game systems that had been haphazardly built on top of each other over the years. As a legendary 2 player with over 1500+ hours invested in the game, it wasn't a decision taken lightly, but I can't imagine returning to the game anytime soon.

I kinda hate how I literally had this game installed from the beginning but never gave it a chance after those first few games.

Just came back after 9 years on a new account & I'm enjoying it all over again.

My girlfriend got me into Warframe (she has been away for a few years herself). After two weeks now, I am addicted, but also frustrated. It seems like every single activity and system in this game is unnecessarily clunky and complicated, from trying to group with others to each individual system (factions, planet rep, liches/sisters, builds for (I mean necramech), events, eidolons, etc. etc. etc.) requires hours of reading guides and watching videos to BEGIN to wrap one's head around it...because there's so little synergy between them. It feels like this is a patchwork game where every year it got a whole new dev team who tacked on a new system completely ignoring all of the other systems already there. To anyone considering playing Warframe...it requires a HUGE time investment and is the most Casual unfriendly game I've ever experienced.

i dont mind fishing and such much but the fact each time i try i get swarmed by foes, gets quite tiresome..

[kasiphia]

Great to see you back, I think we're seeing some resurgence in the game so please don't leave us again 🙏

[AdamGoodTime]

Good to see some new warframe content from you

[hoofhearted]

The beginning of this video is why I've barely touched any content for a long time. i dont even know where I'm at in the story (think the last mission I did was for Harrow). I just enjoy the gameplay loop of Warframe. The combat and action. I dont really care to grind for shit, i dont care for doing whatever is the new content grind. I've bought with platinum most everything I own. I still havent unlocked Steel Path and still basically only play those "outdated game modes". The Duvari Paradox, the rouge-lite aspect of it, I had absolutely 0 interest in (Actually I stopped playing shortly after this was released). I dont care for any of the Operator content, because I play Warframe to play IN my Warframe. Really, like 75% of Warframe is something I really dont have any interest in. I havent even tried the majority of content I feel. I just like to drop into missions and kill a bunch of shit.

That said, one aspect of Warframe I love, is the very very beginning. Where you actually want to go slow, snipe enemies, stealth kill enemies, etc. I love that part of Warframe (and sometimes I play solo just to do that on missions). But its a part of Warframe that doesnt actually exist since you're supposed to go through and nuke maps as fast as possible.

It's been 3 years since I stopped playing Warframe but now I'm thinking about returning back eventually, but depends because I didn't enjoy spending an entire day farming and stuff like that but I would love to play this game again for some time whenever I'm free

[RllyRin]

I’m a mr8 playing for the first time and it’s almost impossible to get plat without buying it. Putting up 20+ listings for the lowest price but no one will buy because everyone already has everything since they make it so easy to get now

[BaltahazarrRara]

Warframe has always been my comfort game but after several update i have to learn to play it again and thanks for this video it kinda hype me up again in this game to began my grind cause i need to catch up

[RealHypo]

I honestly love this game a lot, even if most of the time is overwhelming with the information you need to get something, and l came to realize myself, l spend most of the time on youtube or Warframe Wiki and just reading and trying to understand how it works rather then playing.Maybe i'm playing the game wrong but am not sure how to enjoy it better.

"Warframe used to be about putting together the best loadout possible"

Wrong. Warframe has and always will be about making your frames look cool. Fashionframe IS the endgame

[Tarsibu]

I hardly ever play warframe but, to be honest, the thing I love about the game is the community. I have NEVER once met a toxic active Warframe player (those that have dumped years & money into the game). Pretty much every interaction I have had so far with the community was very nice/polite.
